Real-time identification of invasive cancer cell interactions
Join us for an exclusive webinar where Dr. Ghada Sharif, Dr. Anton Wellstein, and Dr. Makarand Paranjape, Georgetown University, will delve into the complex world of tumor growth and its dynamic interplay with stromal cells, crucial for understanding malignant progression and immune surveillance. Discover the potential of the newly engineered multi-chamber device, designed to facilitate real-time detection and precise isolation of invasive cancer cell subpopulations within heterogeneous tumor mixtures.
Explore the expanded capabilities of the Agilent xCELLigence RTCA Cell Invasion and Migration Plate (CIM-plate), that enable diverse cellular compositions to emulate metastatic niches. Gain insights into targeted approaches employing immune cells or pathway inhibitors, along with strategies for isolating sensitive or resistant invasive cancer cell populations for comprehensive downstream analysis.
Key learning objectives
- Understand the details of cell-cell interactions in the tumor microenvironment that impact cancer progression
- Understand how investigation of cell invasion can provide insight into metastasis, tissue remodeling, and angiogenesis
- Distinguish the benefits of endpoint vs real-time cell analysis technologies for the analysis of distinct cell behaviors
- Gain insight into novel methods to monitor and isolate migrating cell subpopulations for subsequent study
Who should attend?
- Researchers and drug developers investigating mechanistic aspects of cancer relating to tumor microenvironment, metastasis, and invasive behavior of cancer cells
- Scientists looking for novel methods of analyzing and recovering migrating cell subpopulations, as well as assessing the impact of secreted factors and other cross-talk between co-cultured cells
